Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The second stage in the process of moving from powerlessness to empowerment is the "identification of alternatives" stage. Job enrichment, which involves increasing an employee's job responsibilities and autonomy, is one way to identify alternatives and increase feelings of empowerment. Feedback and reinforcement may come later in the process, while feelings of powerlessness are part of the first stage.
